Air Peace Resumes Lagos-Carribbean Direct Flights, Targets Tourism Traffic

Air Peace has unveiled plans to resume its monthly direct flight service linking Lagos with the Caribbean, operating to Antigua and Barbados.

A statement by the Spokesman of the airline, Efe Osifo-Whiskey, said the service, scheduled to commence on May 24, would be the only direct air connection between West and Central Africa and the Caribbean.

He said it would afford passengers seamless travel for business, tourism and diaspora engagements.

According to the published schedule, outbound flights would depart Lagos at 06:00, arriving Antigua at 15:00, before continuing to Barbados at 16:30 and landing at 17:50.

Return services will depart Barbados at 13:00, arrive Antigua at 14:20, and proceed to Lagos at 15:50, arriving at 01:50 the following day.

Air Peace noted that the service would allow passengers from across the region to connect through Lagos to the Caribbean, significantly reducing travel time and eliminating the need for multiple stopovers through Europe or North America.

The airline said the route showcased its commitment to strengthening economic, cultural and tourism ties between Nigeria and Caribbean nations, while also providing competitive and reliable travel options across both regions.

He said: “This underscores Air Peace’s commitment to bridging continents and fostering stronger economic, cultural, and tourism ties between Nigeria and the Caribbean region.

“The service provides convenient, reliable and competitive travel options for passengers across both markets.”
